Mistral enters robotics with Robostral Navigate, an 8B model that steers robots using just one camera

Mistral has announced its entry into the robotics market with Robostral Navigate, an 8B model that uses a single RGB camera to guide robots through unknown environments. The model achieves a 76.6% accuracy on the R2R-CE benchmark, having been trained in simulation and refined through reinforcement learning (CISPO). Mistral has not yet disclosed when the model will be available, raising questions about its strategy in this growing sector.
